3.5″ internal hard drive for use in entry-level or mid-range NAS arrays (up to eight drives). It is the youngest model of the WD Red HDD family, which includes four models from 2 GB to 6 TB. It is positioned as an affordable product in the middle price category, designed for use in home and office multi-disk storage connected to the local network using high-speed network cable or wireless connections.

It can also be used as an additional HDD in a versatile home PC, gaming or multimedia system. Due to the low rotation speed of the magnetic plates (5400 rpm), the WD Red WD20EFAX hard drive should not be used as a system hard drive, but it will perfectly cope with storing files of working projects, video / photo / audio content of the highest quality and backups. This model uses the technology of "tiled" magnetic recording (SMR), which allows to achieve high recording density. It has a low noise level and low heat dissipation (up to 4.1 W when writing), which is important for creating multi-disk home NAS systems with quiet cooling.
